All WILLIAM SHAKESPEARE Quotes about “Astronomy”

“These earthly godfathers of Heaven's lights, that give a name to every fixed star, have no more profit of their shining nights than those that walk and know not what they are.”
“And teach me how To name the bigger light, and how the less, That burn by day and night.”
“There's some ill planet reigns: I must be patient till the heavens look With an aspect more favourable.”
“When thou cam'st first, Thou strok'st me and made much of me; wouldst give me Water with berries in't; and teach me how To name the bigger light, and how the less, That burn by day and night; and then I loved thee And showed thee all the qualities o' th' isle, The fresh springs, brine-pits, barren place and fertile.”
“Not from the stars do I my judgement pluck, And yet methinks I have astronomy. But not to tell of good or evil luck, Of plagues, of dearths, or season's quality; Nor can I fortune to brief minutes tell ... Or say with princes if it shall go well.”
“My lord, they say five moons were seen to-night-- Four fixed, and the fifth did whirl about The other four in wondrous motion.”
